Mine finally changed to by 10:30AM tomorrow. Was end of day.
Yes! That's what i'm most excited for haha, i plan to give my UPS guy some bottles of water for the rest of his day
10:29 import scan Louisville..I thought it would have went out to Newark already but my delivery is still by 1030. I guess that's all that matters
Where is your phone going to?? My phone is still:
Addison, IL, United States 09/17/2012 6:00 P.M. Departure Scan
The delivery till still states 3:00pm or end of day.
Anyone else have this?

I have an 8:18 import to Louisville, i guess they've been pretty damn busy this morning!
Yes... Exactly.
However mine was a scan from the original...
There was an original?
(Oh fine...64GB black AT&T, ordered through Apple, marked as Shipped, apparently in Louisville. Yes I obsess much, thank you!)

No sarcasm, thats very nice of you!
I ordered at 3:39 AM ET via app.
It was always 9/21 and just yesterday updated as "Delivers 9/21 via Next Day Shipping". But still there is no product info, no UPS record yet.
I am also concerned having a delay update email which happened to lots of customers who ordered on AT&T site.
I'm still showing two different delivery windows depending on weather I check from the ups app (which gives 4-7pm) while the website is saying by 12.
Not fun. :|

Well now that we are getting more Import Scans in Kentucky, here's to counting down and refreshing for Departure Scans!
Honestly I wouldn't worry about it still saying it's in KY. I used to work at a company that shipped everything UPS (60-80 a day) and their tracking system is far from perfect. I also know they will manipulate it in certain situations when necessary.
Then there's the nature of this event; with Apple being somewhat controlling over delivery times and pre-signing. It's entirely possible that all our phones are sitting at our local depot ready to head out and UPS just didn't update their system so people wouldn't try to pick theirs up today.
I'm sure their CS dept is completely overwhelmed and if leaving them in KY (at least on paper) will help ease that burden then it's no wonder the tracking hasn't updated.

yeah, on the website i get 10:30am, on my app, i get 1:30pm-5:30pm..i went to chat with a representative, and they've all told me 10:30..so who knows, i mean, beginning of this week, UPS said it's all by end of day and they've suspended the committed times..sooo i guess we won't know til we actually get it lol
Well I also got my import scan in KY this morning and my "shipped!" email from Apple.. But, flightaware said there were no flight to my area except for one that should have departed at 3:23 am this morning. Any chance it was on that flight and the import scan was delayed? Or maybe flightaware is missing a newly added flight?
I know I'm still gonna get it tomorrow someway, I'm just curious. It's been fun tracking it all over the world.

I am in the same boat as you. Except my order page has never updated to "Delivers 9/21 via Next Day Shipping".
I have called Apple and they said that it "should" arrive tomorrow, but it might come early next week.
Mine is in Louisville after the slowest nonstop flight from Anchorage ever. It says delivery on Friday by 10:30AM. Still wondering if it'll be going from Louisville/SDF to OAK or SJC.
As a side note, ZDnet has some guy saying the new Apple connector is a mixed bag of hurt. (paraphrased)
I never bothered investing in technology that carried the proprietary 30 pin Apple adaptor. Why? Because they always wanted close to $100 for anything...
The only thing I bothered purchasing is units with external 3.5mm mini plugs. Frankly the iPhone 5 will work better with these things, because the audio jack is now on the bottom.
Anyways, I'm not hurting over this. I never paid more than $5 for a 30 pin USB charge and sync cable. I expect to do the same with the new connector, in time... also, I still have the iPhone 4 and 4s, plus iPad 2, and two iPods. Plenty of stuff to use the old cables. Now, only one iPhone 5, and expect to get two new iPods for the kids this year, and the iPad mini, when it comes out. So investing in extra cables is a must, but not a pocket buster.

Finally got my tracking number from Apple today, but when I do the track by reference thing on UPS, it shows 2 packages with different tracking numbers. Delivery info/times for the one that apple sent, but an "order processed: ready for UPS" on the other. I only ordered one phone - and nothing else from anywhere else - wonder what that 2nd package is all about?
Also, mine still says "by end of day." I'm having it delivered to my office, so I'm hoping it comes at the normal UPS delivery time so I don't have to stay late to get it!

The ups.com site says that, the packagemapping,com site shows that there was a location scan this morning. No arrival scan, but that indicates the phone is at Louisville and that perhaps ups.com is not reporting location scans.
